Review: Gentle, no-nonsense cleanser that actually lives up to its name - I’ve been using Purpose Gentle Cleansing Wash daily for several weeks, and I understand why it has such a loyal following. First off, this cleanser does exactly what it claims—cleans without stripping. I have sensitive, combination skin and many “gentle” cleansers either leave a film or don’t fully remove sunscreen and light makeup. This one manages to cleanse thoroughly while still leaving my skin feeling comfortable, not tight or dry. The texture is a clear gel that lathers lightly (not overly foamy), and it rinses clean without residue. There’s no noticeable fragrance, which I really appreciate, especially for morning and evening use. I’ve had no irritation, redness, or breakouts since switching to this. I also like that it works well for multiple uses: • Morning cleanse • Second cleanse after makeup removal • Gentle enough for daily use Pros: • Very gentle, non-drying • No strong scent • Works well for sensitive skin • A little goes a long way • Good value, especially in the multi-pack Cons: • If you prefer a rich foam or a “spa-like” scent, this may feel too basic • Heavy makeup still needs a remover first Overall, this is a reliable, dermatologist-style cleanser that focuses on skin health rather than trends. It’s now a staple in my routine, and I would absolutely repurchase.
Review: Gentle Cleanser. Great for sensitive acne prone skin - Bought this for my friend's daughter who is a teen suffering with acne on her cheeks and forehead. She was using OTC acne treatments, but they were harsh and did not make her skin look or feel better. My grandma turned me on to this soap when I had skin issues and now it comes in a face wash (much nicer). It lathers nicely and doesn't burn her skin. Her skin felt better and did not look as dry. We did notice that her acne appears to be drying out and it is not as red. Good value for money getting two bottles.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great facial soap!
*by B***M on May 29, 2026*

I have used this face wash for years. It was recommended to me by a colleague more than 11 years ago. Her teenage children were struggling with acne, and Purpose face wash helped clear up their skin. As someone with combination facial skin, I decided to try the face wash. I have not gone back since! I do notice a difference with my facial skin when I DON'T wash with Purpose for a few days. For example, If I'm too tired to wash my face at night, and I haven't worn makeup, I might just rinse with water and go to bed. If I do this for several nights (ex, while on holiday), my face will soon begin to show visible break-outs. Once I resume with Purpose, those break-outs disappear quickly. I have bounced between using the Purpose soap bar and the liquid soap. I currently use the liquid version because I find the bar of soap becomes hard and flaky before I'm able to get even halfway through it. Plus, the liquid version is quicker to use. I highly recommend this soap to anyone!
